"The Man That I Love" is a song from the Hercules episode, "Hercules and the Yearbook". It is a solo sung by Megara to encourage Hercules to accept his "awkward phase" and help him understand it made him into both the man and hero he is today, but most importantly, the man she loves.
Lyrics[]
You were awkward in high school;
a little unsure.
Had a case of the clumsies
that needed a cure.
But the most precious gems,
have their roots in the rough,
Just like my hero,
the man that I love.
Made a number of blunders,
but haven't we all?
Still you always worked wonders,
with your back to the wall.
Though I'm duly impressed,
with this fisticufff stuff,
it's just a small part of,
the man that I love.
There's been hits,
a few misses,
one or two in-betweens.
A couple of kisses
and some devilish threats.
You fought monstorous battles,
made some narrow escapes,
but I'm much more in awe,
of your character traits.
'Cause you're gentle and kind,
and you never give up.
This is what makes you,
the man that I love!
I thank Zeus for this gift,
from Olympus above.
My number one hero,
The man that I love.
